Friends,
Today on 23.06.2013 the final match of the ICC Champions Trophy 2013 has been scheduled. The match will be played between India and England. Both the Teams are looking in good form and confidence. England had repeatedly lost all four big final they had been in - World Cups in 1979, 1987 and 1992 and the Champions Trophy in 2004. Besides, India is the current 50 Overs World Champions. At present the rain has stopped the match. India’s fans, who were expected to match the home team’s supporters man for man at Edgbaston on Sunday (June 23), will settle for nothing less than an emphatic win. Four wins from as many games has shown that the team has the essential ingredients needed for One-Day International success: a consistent opening combination, a middle order waiting to explode, quick bowlers for all seasons and spinners who can attack and defend.
England, for their part, have been equally impressive, sticking to their method to prove critics wrong. The top order, dominated by Alastair Cook, Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell, operate at their own pace, not hurried by the scoreboard or the opposition bowling. On subcontinental pitches, where 350 runs from 50 overs is the norm rather than the exception, this approach may come a cropper, but in a tournament where the bowlers have held their own, England have been impeccable.
